Audit Analysis
A VCS cookstove project in India with VVB-confirmed additionality and no material findings, but weakened by a project-specific baseline, inconsistent leakage justification across verification reports, and a low extraction confidence that limits assurance in the underlying data. The verified 2022 ERR of 215,035 tCO₂e represents roughly 404% of the pro-rata expectation derived from the PDD lifetime estimate of 404,947 tCO₂e, suggesting either a very conservative ex-ante baseline or a potential data inconsistency that warrants scrutiny.
Red Flags
- Leakage justification is contradictory: the 2022 verification report states leakage was 'quantified' while the 2023 verification report states it was 'not addressed,' despite a 5% deduction being applied in both cases
- Minimum extraction confidence is rated low, indicating at least one key document was poorly readable and the structured data may be incomplete or unreliable
- CORSIA eligibility and CCP status are both unstated, leaving dual-channel crediting risk unassessed
